Posted at 29/2/2024 08:44 by micktravers Starting with a 6. That's more like it. Still cheap but some you Win....... It will get my vote. |
Posted at 27/2/2024 14:21 by kinwah The volume has eased off considerably today. I've sold a few more CFDs over £5 but I am keeping my main holding intact for now. It looks as if the arbitrage players are sitting on the sidelines at this level. WIN were 505p bid for about 10,000 shares at the peak. At 505p there would be about 30p short-term downside if GXO decides not to bid versus potentially 20p upside with a GXO offer or 45p plus upside with a bid battle and CEVA increasing their offer again. |
Posted at 26/2/2024 16:26 by jeff h We all have our own strategies and views on what to do in bid situations PJ84, sometimes they work out for us, sometimes not but we all benefit from the initial big jump in the share price when a bid is announced.The GXO bid interest been confirmed now:- |
Posted at 26/2/2024 08:55 by micktravers Bid should be starting with a 6 but I reckon a low 5 will do it. Some you Win.... |
Posted at 19/1/2024 21:23 by baddeal I've been in the stock a while and have always felt the mkt hasn't valued it properly. Im happy to take the buy out as I'm not sure the mkt ever would give win the rating it deserved. |
Posted at 10/11/2023 10:52 by edmundshaw Interesting little share buyback - but interim dividend held. 4.8% is not a particularly strong yield in the current market, so I did think they might ratchet that up that a bit rather than go for the buyback at £10m. Generally good noises though about the business; the loss of the HMRC contract - and also a couple of others which were not mentioned - does not seem to have caused them to downgrade expectations, they also announced winning of some new business which presumably makes up for losing lucozade et al, and of course there is that good news on the pension triennial front. |
Posted at 06/9/2023 07:39 by pj84 Peel Hunt: Pension review will drive growth at WincantonAnalysts from Peel Hunt see logistics group Wincanton (WIN) kicking growth up a gear after its triennial pension review. Analyst Alexander Paterson reiterated his ‘buy’ recommendation and target price of 300p on the Citywire Elite Companies + rated stock, which was trading at 236p on Tuesday. The review of the pension started in April and is set to conclude imminently. The deficit has declined from more than £200m to just £11.9m at the end of March and ‘we expect it to have declined further given a £5.7m contribution at the end of June and higher bond yields’, said Paterson. The group is also ‘exiting low or no return closed-book transport and transitioning to lower-risk open book contracts and areas of higher value’, which would provide capital to invest. ‘We see significant growth potential and commercial benefit from investing this capital where it can exceed the risk-adjusted returns from a share buyback, which would drive a rerating of the stock on higher profitability,&rsquo |
Posted at 23/5/2023 17:53 by pj84 Despite the headline the article is generally positive about the future the following are some snippets but the whole article can be accessed from the link above."Wincanton profits tumble 30% after one-off costs and some of the logistics firm's clients insourcing to cut costs" "Despite the statutory loss, Wincanton rewarded investors with a 10 per cent hike to dividend, or a full-year payout of 13.2p per share." Analysts at Peel Hunt said the results were slightly ahead of their forecasts and represented an 'excellent' year for the group. 'This was a challenging year, with lower customer volumes impacting 2H and inflationary pressures,' they said. 'However, these were successfully managed with major customer wins across the group’s four sectors as well as strategic investments in robotics and automation.'" |
Posted at 09/3/2023 00:23 by pj84 Wincanton blown off course for short term, says LiberumThe loss of a large contract at logistics firm Wincanton (WIN) as well as other headwinds are weighing in the near term, but Liberum says the medium-term outlook remains positive. Analyst Gerald Khoo retained his ‘buy’ recommendation and reduced the target price from 500p to 400p on the stock, which slumped 25.8%, or 78.7p, to 226.9p on Tuesday. Although this year’s trading remains in line, Khoo said, ‘the loss of a large and above-average margin contract with HMRC, and growing volume headwinds on closed book contracts, means management expects March 2024 estimated earnings to be materially below current consensus’. ‘We cut our 2024 estimated earnings per share forecast by 20%, with a 9% cut to 2025,’ said Khoo. ‘The short-term pressure on earnings is clearly disappointing but the medium-term outlook remains positive.’ |
